five shoot starters unique
They are a good-shooting team. They have an inside-outside game. They have five starters who can shoot the three, and that's kind of unique when you think about it. They have five 3-point threats.
complete define game offensive players shooter
Some players you can define as a shooter and some you can define as a driver. ... He has a pretty complete offensive game at this point.
aware beat containing dribble job value
Defensively, he used to be awful. He?d get beat on backdoors ... he?s doing a better job on screens. Now he?s not getting beat off the dribble very much. He?s containing his man. He?s more aware of the value of defense.
bit court gave half justin kick near past shot stopped
That gave us a little bit of a kick start. In the past Justin would have stopped near half court and shot a three.
good home maybe mentally protecting team
Maybe the team is getting mentally tougher. We've been good at protecting our home turf.
confident couple foul line maybe needs rebounds shoot slump
Maybe he needs to get a couple of rebounds and get fouled and get to the line. I?m confident if we get to the foul line we can shoot our way out of this slump that we are in.
good happy justin lenny shots
Lenny and Justin were really terrific. They made shots and did a lot of good things. I was real happy for them.
central game limit minutes played playing remember shoot straight
We were able to limit them to one shot. We made them a perimeter team. We made them shoot from the perimeter. I can?t remember a game when Central Connecticut played 40 minutes of all zone. I just can?t remember us doing that, playing straight 2-3.
good offensive poise shot unselfish win
I thought we were very unselfish as a team. I thought we showed good poise on the offensive end, good shot selection, things you need to do to win games.
couple games last people valuable
I think the last couple of games people who haven?t scored that much have been just as valuable as the people who have scored.
course speed taken
Frye must have taken a speed course this summer. He can put it in another gear.
ball beat body chance easy guarded high land maybe movement percentage players reason seem shoot stand strength whatever
For whatever reason we don?t seem to shoot a very high percentage from 3-point land (against Monmouth) which has been our strength this year. Maybe it?s a little more patience, maybe it?s a little more movement of the players. If we don?t move and we don?t try and penetrate then we stand still and it?s very easy for our players to be guarded ..We need some body movement and some ball movement to have a chance to beat them on Sunday.
bit roll
We're on a little bit of a roll now.
maybe
He was on a roll. Probably thought he could make 30-footers. Maybe he would have.
